Kitsault Energy (KE) is sponsoring and exhibiting at the BC Natural Gas Symposium in Vancouver, BC, Canada, June 4–5, 2013. Mr. Krishnan Suthanthiran, President of KE is a speaker during the June 4th mid-morning session. The multiple phases of the Kitsault Energy project are: Phase 1 will include a pipeline from North East British Columbia, Canada to Kitsault, BC, and will include a Floating LNG (FLNG) Port Facility. Phase 2 will include a land based LNG Plant, and LNG Export Terminal at Kitsault, BC. Phase 3 will include other expansions in the future.

Kitsault is located 800 km (500 miles) north of Vancouver, British Columbia and 115 km (75 miles) north of Prince Rupert, British Columbia, Canada. It is a purpose-built resource community with complete community infrastructure and housing for nearly 1,000 residents. With nearly 350 acres of industrial and residential land, full B.C. Hydro service, and deep water for a port, Kitsault makes both economic and environmental sense as the preferred location to be the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) terminal site for the export of natural gas from North East British Columbia to Asia and other markets. LNG pipeline routing to Kitsault has already been proposed by others.

Advantages of Kitsault Energy as a Dedicated Energy Corridor and Export Terminal

1. Kitsault is the closest location to the natural gas rich Northeast British Columbia, Canada to establish a Dedicated Energy Corridor and Export Terminal.
2. It has the infrastructure, 90 houses (three bedroom with basement) and 150 condos (2–3 bedrooms) to house nearly 1000 residents, along with the necessary Recreation Center, Medical Clinic, Shopping Center, Post Office, Bank, Restaurants, Supermarket, etc. ready to occupy.
3. It has full British Columbia Hydro Power service to the entire town site.
4. It can be accessed by road, multiple airports, water, helicopters, float planes, water taxi, etc.
5. It has a Deep Water Port for navigation of Tankers, Barges, Ships, etc.
6. Sufficient land for FLNG, Land Based LNG, Port, Export Terminal, and other infrastructure.
7. It will save two to three years in project planning, construction of pipelines and other facilities.
8. A project using Kitsault, can save as much as 5 Billion USD from the total cost of the project.
9. The pipeline can be shorter by 100 to 200 kilometers, and savings on this alone can be 1 to 3 Billion USD in cost and 1 or more years of time.
10. Kitsault is a privately owned Fee Simple Property, with 350 acres of land. Additionally, many thousands of acres of land are available if needed.
11. Kitsault is located in the Regional District and not a Municipality. Therefore, industrial and other taxes will be lower with potential savings of hundreds of millions USD or more per year in taxes alone.
12. Kitsault used to be a Molybdenum (used for strengthening steel) Mine, and as a result, extensive environmental assessment has been performed for the site itself as recently as 2012.
13. The pipeline from Northeast B.C. to Kitsault will primarily be along less populated Crown Land and some First Nation’s land with little variation in elevation, and therefore causing the least environmental impact.
14. From Kitsault’s Export Terminal, the Tankers, Barges and Ships can enter the ocean quickly without experiencing any congestion from navigation related to other traffic such as containers or grain loading and unloading as in other ports.
15. Asia will be able to rely for their energy needs, on supplies from the privately owned Kitsault Energy and join as an equity partner to have a long term contract with a stable and reliable supply at reasonable prices from Canada, a strong, vibrant and democratic country.
16. A Dedicated Energy Corridor and Export Energy Terminal at Kitsault will have a tremendous future for other expansion plans benefitting British Columbia, all of Canada and Asia.

Some of the LNG export companies focused elsewhere have spent considerable time and money in setting up and planning for site development, however with limited options for expansion. In addition, the other ports are experiencing a tremendous growth in container and grain traffic and plan to more than double this traffic by the end of this decade, when many of the proposed LNG projects will become operational. While this is very positive for B.C. and Canada, it could pose operational and logistical challenges and has the potential to increase the cost of LNG to the customers and consumers.

USA and Canada will spend nearly 15 Billion USD per month over the next two decades in Oil and Gas Exploration, Infrastructure, Production and Distribution. In view of this, Best Global Talent Agency was established recently to meet the growing needs of various industries for a highly trained and skilled labor force, and to provide training to First Nations Communities and others for these high paying jobs. Best Cure Foundation was established in 2007 to make quality healthcare and education affordable and accessible globally.

Significant investments are also needed in all the First Nations Communities (FNC) for purified drinking water, sewer systems, healthcare, education, job training, jobs and housing. With increased royalties from the energy sector, and contributions from the Federal and Provincial governments, this can be accomplished during this decade. We at Kitsault Energy, Best Global Talent Agency and Best Cure Foundation are acutely aware of this urgent need in the FNC and are eager to participate proactively in the revitalization of the energy sector and its infrastructure, in partnership with FNCs across Canada.
